Fig - Almond Cake

Ingredients:
50 g melted butter
2½ dl   almonds (do not skin)
½ dl cane sugar and 2 tbsp coarse sugar to sprinkle over the figs before baking
½ dl flour
½ tsp baking soda
⅛ tsp cinnamon
⅛ tsp coarse salt
3 eggs
2 tbsp honey
½ tsp  almond extract
10 -12 ripe  figs (stem removed)

Grind the almonds to a coarse powder and mix with all the dry ingredients. Melt butter and honey together and let cool a bit before adding three eggs. Whip together and add the almond extract. Then add all the dry ingredients and stir well  until combined.
Pour the batter in a baking pan ( mine is a silicone dish, so no need to butter it) and place the halved figs on top. Sprinkle with coarse sugar and bake for 30 minutes at 200 degrees.
